Gregory Green is an independent research group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) in Heidelberg, Germany, specializing in galactic evolution and interstellar dust mapping. His work combines observational data from the Gaia mission, photometric surveys, and computational models to reconstruct three-dimensional structures of the Milky Way. Key research areas include dust extinction curves, stellar dynamics, and data-driven astrophysical inference. Institution: Max Planck Institute for Astronomy Department: Galaxies and Cosmology Position: Sofia Kovalevskaja Group Leader Contact: +49 6221 528-460 | Königstuhl 17, 69117 Heidelberg Green's research focuses on computational astrophysics and galactic structure analysis. He develops novel methods for mapping dust extinction in 3D, studies the dynamics of the Milky Way's gravitational potential, and applies machine learning to stellar population analysis. His work bridges observational astronomy with theoretical modeling, particularly in understanding the interstellar medium's role in galaxy evolution. The 15 most recent publications highlight his emphasis on Gaia data exploitation, dust mapping algorithms (including normalizing flows), and galactic dynamics. Articles span topics from binary star census to radiative properties of the interstellar medium, with methodological innovations in astrometric inference and spectral analysis. Scientific Awards: Sofia Kovalevskaja Award recipient for establishing independent research group Green leads the Galaxy Evolution group at MPIA, contributing to cosmological applications of galactic dust mapping. His work informs models of galaxy formation and provides foundational data for studies of stellar populations and dark matter constraints via satellite galaxies.
